| From the Egyptian symbol of eternity, the Ankh, to the Christian symbol of redemption, the Cross, human beings have sought to encapsulate their faith in jewelry for millennia. What is it that drives us to translate our deepest, most spiritual intuitions into stone and metal? According to Jungian psychologists and their modern day standard bearers, like Joseph Campbell, human beings are primed to respond to archetypal symbols, like the Cross, the Star, and the Ankh. Something about these symbols resonates across cultures. Indeed, even very identifiable modern religious symbols, like the Crucifix, have counterparts in ancient and disparate religions throughout the world. Thanks to the Internet, religious jewelry collectors can now expand their sets by shopping for wholesale religious jewelry. Whether you are looking for an authentic Miraculous medal from the 1830s, rare Islamic bracelets, or baptismal pins for your church, you can beat the market price by searching for wholesale religious jewelry at competitive online auctions. Wholesale online jewelers face competition across markets--competition which can drive prices way down even on rare wholesale religious jewelry. That said, you could end up spending an arm and a leg on shipping and handling if you buy your pieces individually, so it may behoove you to find a collector who sells sets of medals. In any event, familiarize yourself with the popular religious jewelry pieces available before bidding. Favorites include black onyx crosses, silver Miraculous medals, St. Christopher medals, angel medallions, menorah charms, scarab beetles, and a host of homages to important Hindu deities, such Saraswati, Ganesha, and the Goddess Durga. |
